A four-hour drive
Is easy with a good book
Read me a story

Spells, mysteries, and
“I would have gotten away
But — meddling kids!”

Madison, tonight
Fed, tucked in, mind still buzzing
–Work, People, Decision–

So I read a book
Escape to a haunted house
‘Tis the right season

To flutter my heart
And shake my skin, sometimes you
Need a goddamn ghost

With Love,

Natalie
